Downtown Lincoln just got a fresh spot to grab a pint. The Trax Off The Rails has opened on the Brand Feeds block, taking over the beer-and-wine garden that previously sat on the corner. The new taproom and kitchen comes with a long, rotating beer list, a selection of wines and a full gastropub menu built to play nice with local brews. With indoor seating and a heated patio, it is set up as a year-round neighborhood hangout for families and beer fans.
New Taproom With a Familiar Formula
According to Good Day Sacramento, The Trax Off The Rails pours from 28 taps and serves wine alongside a full food menu. The bar and kitchen sit in the corner unit at the Shops at Lincoln Brand Feeds, the downtown cluster of restaurants and retail. Commercial listings show the space was recently built out as an outdoor beer-and-wine garden before The Trax moved in, and LoopNet notes the unit at 400 Lincoln Blvd was already configured with a full kitchen and tap infrastructure.
From Roseville to Lincoln
The Lincoln location is an expansion of The Trax Taproom & Kitchen in Roseville, which the City of Roseville lists as opening on Vernon Street in 2022. Local food coverage reported that the Lincoln outpost held a grand-opening weekend over the holidays as operators moved into the Brand Feeds space, and Abridged noted the new spot is intended to mirror the Roseville concept. The original Roseville location built a following for its rotating taps and straightforward, beer-friendly fare that the operator appears to be transplanting to Lincoln.
What Is On the Menu
Menu staples such as Trax Tacos, Conductor Sliders, Locomotive Wings and Ahi Poke Nachos are listed on The Trax Roseville menu and are likely to show up in Lincoln as well. In Roseville, the menu sticks to bar-friendly dishes that pair with a rotating craft-beer program built around the taps. Regular events at the Roseville spot, including trivia, open mic nights and live music, suggest the kind of programming the Lincoln location may roll out. Style Magazine has covered that lineup and the venue’s community nights.
What It Means for Downtown Lincoln
The arrival of a second Trax location adds another option to the growing list of eateries on the Brand Feeds block, a shopping-and-dining hub that property managers are marketing as downtown Lincoln’s core. Leasing pages and the center’s site highlight a push to build a walkable downtown dining district that can support year-round operations and events. For now, the quickest way to check the tap list or find upcoming happenings is through recent local coverage and the business’s online pages.
